ACK. Quoting the trace again: [ 3839.679749] Call Trace: [ 3839.679757] [<ffffffffa00bfb2e>] ? wait_barrier+0xd7/0x118 [raid1] [ 3839.679763] [<ffffffff8103f6e2>] ? try_to_wake_up+0x197/0x197 [ 3839.679770] [<ffffffffa00c298b>] ? make_request+0x111/0xa5b [raid1] [ 3839.679777] [<ffffffffa0135712>] ? crypto_aes_decrypt_x86+0x5/0x5 [aes_x86_64] [ 3839.679784] [<ffffffffa0135712>] ? crypto_aes_decrypt_x86+0x5/0x5 [aes_x86_64] [ 3839.679791] [<ffffffffa012523a>] ? encrypt+0x3f/0x44 [xts] [ 3839.679803] [<ffffffffa00d3d47>] ? md_make_request+0xee/0x1db [md_mod] What I found interesting is that the kernel hangs at wait_barrier. I only know the term "barrier" from filesystems. I googled a bit for barrier+cryptsetup and barrier-md-raid but didn't find anything that helps. Searching for "kernel hang at wait_barrier" revelas a few kernel bugs that might be related. I guess it's a software problem. J. -- I am very intolerant with other drivers.
